How should a child with tonsillitis and low fever be treated for the best effect?

Patient's question:

Boy baby, just turned one month old, just starting, says his throat hurts even when drinking water, noticed it, accompanied by mild cough. Also, his high fever hasn't subsided yet. Please ask: How should tonsillitis with low-grade fever be treated for the best effect in children?

Doctor's answer:

Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory drugs can be appropriately administered, and they can be combined with local treatment methods, such as tonsillar crypt irrigation or intratonsillar medication, which are all effective. Pain relievers can also be given based on the child's condition, especially when the throat pain is severe, to help alleviate the discomfort. If there is a fever, the method of cooling should be chosen according to the body temperature. Below 38.5°C, physical cooling methods can be used, while above 38.5°C, oral antipyretics can be administered. If the medication is not effective and the condition recurs frequently, surgical treatment is recommended. Finally, it is hoped that parents can take this disease seriously, take their children to the doctor for early treatment, and also pay attention to relevant prevention and health care measures in daily life.
